*Gemini*My eyes settle on Rocky as he chats animatedly to Bridger. The two look heated for a moment as Rocky throws his hands up in the air in frustration. I watch as Bridger’s eyes skirt to me, lingering for a moment before he frowns and says something back. It’s not until he smiles and turns to walk away that I feel Rocky’s eyes on me. I meet his gaze for a second, then he looks around and walks toward us. “Things are going to start happening very fast.” He says, clearing his throat. “I have food and changes of clothing coming for everyone.”“What is the plan, then?” I ask. I know he made one with Bridger, and I know for a damn fact he is going to attempt to get me over that damn border without caring about the pain it may cause him. What he doesn’t know is he is going to have to throw my ass across it himself if he thinks I will willingly step across that borderline. “I will explain that when I get back,” he says, brushing past me.“Where are you going?” Blossom asks, her little

Rocky says nothing the longer the night goes on, every hour bringing us closer to sunrise. He looks tense, his shoulders tight as he speaks with Bridger every time he comes back to check in. I hug myself, missing my little hero, Blossom, who I was assured had a great day and dinner with her new friends before going to sleep. “He will be back soon,” Marcus says, but it’s clear he is saying it more for himself. “Sean is quick, and nimble.”“Have you known him for a long time?” I ask him, trying to distract both of our anxious minds. Marcus nods, a small chuckle on his lips.“I remember once when we were thirteen, we used to pretend to race the warriors during their training runs, until one day, he was actually beating them. He just got faster and faster.” He says wistfully, lost in the memory. “Wouldn’t that have made him valuable for the other pack that took yours over?” I ask. “Strength isn’t the only thing a warrior needs. Speed and agility are equally important.”“True, but if one

My body aches, my muscles tight with pushing the pain away, but I bear it knowing I have to. There is no way I can let her see me struggle. Not yet, not until I am too far gone. She won’t be able to run out and save me. The goal is to kill as many of these rogue rats as I can before they take me down. And then, hopefully Bridger will be up to task. A new fresh fighter until Jude hopefully shows up to shut this shitshow down. But with how quickly the rogues made it to us, I am skeptical.“Rocky! MOVE!” Bridger roars and I push everything out of my mind. A rogue in human form runs toward me and I snatch him up by his neck, swinging him like a sith used to mow down a field of wheat. His neck snaps and his body goes limp as I throw his dead weight at a few others before tearing a wolf from my ankle. His muzzle crunches in my lycan hand, his tongue falling out of his mangled jaw as he shifts back to human form. Two lunge at me at once, one going high and one going low. I drop to my four

*Rocky*Something yanks at my hand, but I feel nothing, see nothing but Gemini, panting and growing paler by the second. Everything I have done, every false, painful word, every stab to her heart, has meant nothing now. Rage courses through my veins, waking up a side of my lycan I can’t control, one I can’t contain.My head falls back, a terrifying howl crackling through the air like a whip. A king announcing his presence amongst his subjects. My skin tingles, my heart aching as my chest creaks and bones throb. It feels like my first shift, painful and slow.As if a new me is emerging from the slumber, breaking free of the chains that confined me for far too fucking long. My tattoos remain. I watch them morph as my skin changes to my lycans’ hide and my jaw breaks before rearranging.The rogues around me look at me in horror, their eyes filled with fear and instant regret. But it’s too late for them, too late for anyone who has used my mate’s gift for their own benefit.For a moment I

*Gemini*The pain wipes away, leaving me with nothing to hold on to but the stark reality of a life without Rocky. Everything feels bleak, my heart feeling dull, empty, as I turn onto my stomach, crawling toward him. His mountain of a body lays over the asshole who was going to kill me, a one inch stake protruding from his back. There is no amount of air I can suck in to catch my breath as everything closes in around me. A tight band grows taut around my chest, my muscles spasming and my mind growing fuzzy. I can save him, I know I can. But how…how the hell do I save him when he is like…this.I search around me, whimpering as tears stream down my face and my voice trembling. “Help!” I cry out, weak and no one hears me…how can they with the roar of this raging battle?Then I see her. Little Blossom runs with Bridger at her back and Jude along the outside of the barrier. She is leading them to me, this little angel that was sent to save us all.“Gemini!” Jude screams as he gets closer

*Rocky* “Pet…” I croak, forcing my eyes open. She is near me, I can feel her, the way her healing tickles through my veins, sewing me up fiber by fiber of my sliced muscles. I was supposed to die, it was supposed to be me, so why the fuck am I waking up? With great effort, I groan, moving my hand until I feel it, soft skin and a shot of electricity that feels like a shock straight to my heart. I twist onto my side, pushing aside the pain, forcing that barrier up to stop her. There is no way in the world she can handle the magnitude of my injury with her weaker wolf after all her healing. She is passed out next to me, and I fixate on her chest, watching it rise and fall. It stutters once and slows until I touch her and I see her body jolt. The mate bond is intense, ensuring her heart keeps beating. A raw nerve into the sheer force of my love for her. It’s slow, but I inch closer, my fingers aching to touch her cheek, my eyes hungry to look into hers. But when I look at her, she is

“Where is Jude?” I ask Bridger as he plops down in the chair next to my bed. He sighs and shakes his head.“Who the hell knows? I am hiding from him if I am being honest, so for once, I don’t actually care where the kid is.” He sighs, slumping in the chair and closing his eyes. “He is a good kid and will be a great alpha,” I mumble. Bridger just chuckles before he sighs again. “You are right, he is and he will make a great alpha, but damn, the kid is hell bent on getting shit done,” he murmurs. “I’m not sure I have slept since you guys showed up here three days ago.”I slide a glance to Gemini who sleeps in the bed next to me, still out cold, but what matters is that she is alive, comatose, but alive. “Yeah, I know what you mean…” I admit.I can feel my exhaustion settling in my bones. It’s not that I don’t want to sleep or that I am not tired. It’s just that…I’m afraid to wake up in a world where she is gone. What If I finally give in and close my eyes and when I wake up she is jus

*Gemini*“It feels like my chest is going to implode,” Rocky says, his hand clutching his chest as he grows more coherent by the second.My hands shake as I reach out and touch him, selfishly relishing every little spark that dances across my fingertips. It is very apparent to me what is happening, but I doubt he has ever experienced anything like this before. “You just need to breathe. Focus on inhaling and exhaling.” I tell him, inching closer on my knees. “Look at me, okay? I am right here and we are both alive. We are both safe.”He meets my gaze, his eyes filled with terror and panic as he slowly comes back to me. After a moment, he nods, reaching out to take my hand in his as he presses it to his lips. Then he slumps back onto his butt, his back against the bed as he tugs me along with him. My eyes grow wide in surprise as he pulls me into his lap, holding me in his arms like he has done so many times in the past, cradling me like I am the one who needs it, not him.I don’t arg

An Offering To The Cursed Lycan King Epilogue: One year later
*Gemini* **One year Later** I watch the door, anxiously waiting for Rocky to pop in any moment. My palms sweat and I inhale deeply, wiping the clammy feeling on my lilac sundress. Something happened, something unexpected and scary, something I have no idea how to tell him about as I work to control my breathing. He left me three long days ago and he will come home to a whole new world, one I’m not sure either of us are ready for. The door creaks open, and I jump up from my chair, rushing to him only to stop and groan in annoyance. “Wow, not happy to see me? Do I visit too much?” Jude asks with a fake scoff. I chuckle nervously and walk up to my Alpha brother and give him a big hug. “I am always happy to see you, but I am waiting for Rocky. It’s been three days and I’m excited.” I say with a smile. He furrows his brows and tilts his head. “Excited or nervous?” he waves his hand in my face, “Because this looks like anxiety, not excitement.” I slap his hand away, pressing my l

*Gemini*“Remind me again what we are doing?” I ask Rocky as he saunters through the pack, dragging me along like he is looking for something. It is obvious his mind is preoccupied elsewhere, but I don’t mind it. Honestly, even with all the stress of learning what it is to be a present alpha for his pack, he is less tense than he was before. Not that I blame him. The whole ‘doom and gloom’ lingering over his pack and his death just continuing the whole issue has a tendency to weigh on a person.“We,” he says, pausing to look around a corner into a small backyard with a beautiful garden. “Are looking for someone.”“Oh?” I ask curiously. “And who is it we are looking for?”“Well, she is a girl.” He says, and I blink at the back of his adorably dense head.“First of all, I want to preface this by saying we agreed not to lie. Second, I don’t like the idea of you looking for another woman.” I admit and he stops, suddenly looking at me with a huge grin on his lips. Then he turns to face me
An Offering To The Cursed Lycan King Chapter 63
I’ve never been in this meeting room before, not even as a kid. It was only ever used for alpha’s which was a moot point considering they were never even here to make use of it. In a way, it became the Beta’s office, used to manage and run an entire pack. To carry all the weight of it while us alpha’s struggled on the outside. It’s strange being in here now, gliding my hand over the smooth cherry wood table that seats thirty people. The window lines the entire wall, looking out into a meadow with a tiny creek that spills out into a lake. On the other side I can see children playing in the water.A smile twitches at the corner of my mouth when I recall the times Bridger and I would play in that same lake. The way we would squeal when the cold water hit our skin. The same place my kids will get to grow up and not have this heavy looming cloud of doom over their heads. My children, if Gemini wants them, will get to play uninhibited with the pressures of having to learn to survive on th

*Rocky*“I’d rather not get out of bed.” I whisper, reaching out and tugging Gemini back toward me as she tries to scurry away. She squeals out loudly in a playful giggle, reaching her arm back and dragging her nails through my hair. I pull her close, nuzzling my face into the crook of her neck where my mark is. She is mine; she is here and not a damn thing can take her from me. Not even an appointment with the reality of the life of a Lycan King.“You have a meeting,” she reminds me, though she wiggles into me more, her bare skin rubbing parts of me that don’t need any more encouragement.“I have a mate. That is far more important than some alphas who want to speak with me.” I tell her honestly. Gemini sighs heavily before she shifts in my arms, spinning to face me. She wears her serious expression and I loosen my hold on her, waiting for her to tell me exactly what I am going to be doing.“What are you so afraid of?” She whispers. Her gentle and knowing eyes find mine, holding my ga

*Gemini*It’s not just the sparks from the bond that are sending my nerves into overdrive, but the anticipation, the waiting hopelessly for exactly this. If I hadn’t already verified I was indeed alive, I would almost think this was a dream.But the way his heart beats in sync with mine, the way he clings to me like his very existence is on the line if we part. It paints this as my reality. The dream I craved and never expected.“Are you okay?” He murmurs against my lips, his cheek brushing over mine as he pants and drags his nose along my jawline. My body shivers involuntarily as my eyes close, relishing every second.“Yes,” I murmur.Rocky leans back on his knees, his eye drinking in every bit of my exposed body. I’m too entranced with his rippling abs to be concerned or embarrassed enough to be shy.I have seen Rocky nude. I have seen him topless on more occasions that I can count. And yes, I have always checked him out at every opportunity, but there is something different when he

*Rocky*“Alpha,” Bridger says, coming up from behind me. My eyes close tight, hating that he is taking away from my time with Gemini. I know I haven’t been around my best friend in ten years. And I also know he has been the acting alpha internally for that entire time and he finally gets a reprieve. But I finally have my mate.“Yes?” I sigh, sitting back in my seat in disappointment, setting my fork down and looking mournfully at Gemini. “The alphas who joined with Jude are rather eager to speak with you now that you are awake and doing better.” He says. “Right,” I mutter, dragging a hand through my hair and wincing at the movement. I may be better than I was, but I am most definitely not fully functioning yet. But being the Alpha King means dealing with it and doing what must be done. “Are you in pain?” Gemini asks, not missing a thing and I give her a soft smile before realizing that she didn’t take my pain. I wasn’t thinking to mask it or try to hide it since it came on so quickl

The fridge is stocked full of every kind of food I could ever dream of, which for a cut off pack is a feat in itself. My stomach growls, anything and everything making my mouth water until I see the steak and I can’t help but smile. It reminds me of the first time Rocky made me something to eat.“There are some raw veggies you can eat,” Jude offers and I shake my head. A sense of excitement settling in my chest. “No, I want to cook something.” I say, grinning. “Uh, for yourself?” He asks warily and I scoff, feigning hurt feelings.“What are you insinuating, brother, who I raised from the time he was a little child?” I lay it on thick as he laughs. “You make food well enough to stay alive, so thank you for that. But that is the nicest thing I can say.” He says.“Butthead.” I mutter, pulling out the steak and searching for some vegetables. “Oh, what would you like to eat?” An older woman asks, rushing into the large kitchen with a gentle smile on her face. “I can make anything you w
